School Uniform Requirements
We believe that it is important for every child to attend school in full uniform, with clean face and hands and with a minimum of jewellery.
Children are always encouraged to remain neat and tidy throughout the day. A clean, smart appearance and the wearing of uniform have a number of advantages:
We greatly appreciate the support of parents with uniform.
Children are always encouraged to remain neat and tidy throughout the day. A clean, smart appearance and the wearing of uniform have a number of advantages:
- Our children are easily identified for security reasons
- Children associate their uniforms with settled behaviour and work
- All children look and are treated as equals
- Uniform limits the influence of fashion and status
- Wearing uniform helps children to take pride and have a sense of belonging to their school;
- Other clothes are kept good for life outside school.
We greatly appreciate the support of parents with uniform.

Uniform for all
We believe in equality of opportunity for all our children and the wearing of grey trousers is as acceptable by girls as it is by boys. All children are to wear black shoes to complete the uniform; some wear black trainers. Shoes with low or medium heels are safer in the playground.
The school greatly appreciates the support of parents in labelling items of uniform with their child’s name, with keeping the uniform clean and by encouraging their children to wear it every day.
